If he consistently treats every patient as he did us......I will recommend him to everyone I know that needs a thoracic surgeon.

Besides being an extremely talented surgeon, he really cares about his patients. It took me two months to decide to go forward with my surgery. During that time, I had numerous questions/concerns and Dr. Wade always took time (~ four 30 to 45 min conversations and response to numerous emails) to ensure I had the information to make a well informed decision about my health care. He was always straight forward and up front about my situation, treatment and recovery even when it was hard to hear. No surprises and no false expectation.
